ہم معنی الفاظ

متضاد الفاظ
consideration (Means keeping options in mind instead of ruling them out.)

ہم معنی الفاظ
excretion (More formal and scientific; used less often in everyday healthcare notes than *elimination* in some settings.)
متضاد الفاظ

planned killing or destruction

The act of killing a person or group on purpose, often in war or politics.

استعمال کا انداز: the elimination of [a person/group/target]

ہم معنی الفاظ
assassination (Usually refers to killing an important person for political or religious reasons; *elimination* can be broader and more euphemistic.)
متضاد الفاظ

mathematical method removing variables

In math, a way to solve several equations at the same time by removing some of the unknowns step by step.

استعمال کا انداز: the elimination of [a variable] from [equations]

متضاد الفاظ
formulation (Refers to setting up equations; the opposite stage of removing variables to solve them.)
